excited great interest in the ecclesiastical
world came off few days ago when the
wedding Of signorlDa Maria JacobIni, the

After the religious ceremony the we'd
ding party adjourned to the Cardinsl's
apartments. just above the rooms occu-
pied by the Pope, whose meditations
must have been curiously disturbed by
the laughter and clinking Of glasseB at the
breakfast table. The Cardinal seemed to
have forgotten his illness for tho moment
In the afternoon the young couple were
married civilly at the Capitol. The pro.
ceedings were interrupted by sensational
incident. The repatriation clerk, seized
with a sudden fit OF insanity,
greeted the bride and BRIDE
groom by pitching candlestick at
their heads. The bride tainted, the bride
groom fumed, and several bystanders
cried and shrieked. Finally, after hand

Nh. JAMES PuRsELL LOWELL was en-
nouucsd to lecture in Chicago, on Wash
iuy!on's Birthday, under the auspices Of
the Union League Club. He was to speak
on american Politics." There was a
crowded house, made up Of a fair repre-
sen.ation Of Chicsgo's intelligence. Mr..
Lowell was introduced and tho good peo-
pie settled themselves to hear his views
on American politics.
But he hal changed his mind. He said
he had prepared an address on the sub
iect announced, but concluded that it was
not opportuno; he would therefore speak
on criticism, aud Shakespeare, and ad.
vance some reasons why he. thought the
immortal William was not the author Of
the tragedy Of Richard III. OF course Mr..
Lowell made iino address, and OF course
there was great disappointment. A star
Of Mr.. Lowell's magnitude may do that
kind OF thing, but it wouldn't do for
Lesser lights TO flicker so. =- .-7 q

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-From the re-
rortera gallery Of the House, yesterday.
an unusual scene on the floor was wit.
messed. ~ ,.s
One Of the small pages was seen to ap.
proach Mr.. Mills, Of Texas, and, after
whispering in his ear, dart rapidly over to
The seat occupied BY Pat Collins, Of Mas.
sachusetta. Then he stopped a moment
beside Mr.. Bennett, OF North Carolina,
with whom he exchanged a few words.
In less time than one could write, these
three gentlemen had met, US by one COM
mon impulse, in the arena fronting the
Speaker'e desk. Here they hugeed each
other and laughed and danced and shout
cd in very glee. To the curious members
who locked about them they explained
that the President had vetosd the Ed
munds Tucker Mormon bill, which thew
themselves had opposed, and hence their
great Joy. Subsequent Investigation
proved that the three gentlemen were Ia E
boring under miBapprehension aud that
the President had not only not vetoed the
bill, but that there was little REASON to be-
lieye he would. ,5. n, -
1tseema that when clerk from tho Ex.
ecutive Mansion returned TO the House
yesterday number OF bills the President
had signed, Mr.: Tucker inquired Of him If /;
the Mormon bill was not among the num-.

sanswer was overheard by the page, who,
jumping at the conclusion that tho bill
mad been vetoed, Immediately rushed to
tho foregoing gentlemen with the result as
stated. Il R al7-7753 - : 4
When Mr., Tucker OK planned how badly
ths.opponents Of his bill had been fooled q
number Of clever Wits, headed by Tom

to the Democratic side to poke a little fun
at Messrs. Mills, Collins and Bennett, but
the three gentlemen had wisely absented

WASHINGTON, D. O., Feb. 24.-The
action Of the House in passing the Bel.
mont substitute instead Of the Senate reso.
luton on tho fishery troubles leaves 1t
very uncertain which measure will finally
be adopted. Tho vote on tho adoption Of
the substitute (l3s to 1897 was too close to
stamp the House as being uuqualitledlv in

tlon, and tho Conference Commit.

the trading vesselu OF the most "a.

ken presumption that there was such

second, that the provision prohibiting the
Importation of Canadian goods was i'm.
practicable and more likely to damage the
United Staten than Canada. These nro.
visions will naturally bear the brunt of
the attack in the conference committec.
but they may be made acceptable by
nero changes in the wording. when once
the substitute was agreed to, the bill ma
thus amended was passed by vote of 252

was the practically unanimous decision
that the outrages on American fishermen
must bs stopped. The only vote against
this proposition was by Mr., Dougherty, Of
Florida, l.! who does not count very heavily.
The Western men grumbled somewhat at
the prospect that their trade would be in.
lured by the retaliation proposed, and
there were some who thoug ght that the re-
taliation was out OF all proportion to the
odense.. These were only objections to
the methods, however, and to the general
determination to strike back when the
American fishermen were imposed upon.
